Another positive DrugWipe UK on a driver in . Some people don’t realise the effects and dangers of driving whilst under the influence of cocaine. Hopefully the driver can reflect whilst sitting in the cell. Driving ban looms now though.

When folk say “why does it take 5-6 cops to arrest them” because we are doing it safely and sometimes it’s needed for those more violent members of society. Cuffs bent due to strength of arrested drunk driver resisting in last night.

From yesterday afternoon. Where possible we always try to use pre-emptive pursuit tactics. Great stop of this stolen car in with help from the staff, resulting in two in the cells, no damage to cars & importantly no potentially dangerous pursuit starting.
